Dark Eggbot is a Predacon Egg Beast from the Beast Wars portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.

<div style="border: 1px solid black; float: right; width: 150px; padding: 5px; margin: 5px;background:white;"> <div style="text-align: center;">Have you seen me?</div> <img alt="" src="/w2/images2/thumb/3/37/Soon-silhouette.jpg/150px-Soon-silhouette.jpg" width="150" height="214" border="0" /><br /> <sub>This character needs some sort of visual representation. If you have one, please replace this.</sub>


</div> Unlike his fellow Egg Beasts, Dark Eggbot does not possess a beast mode. He does, however, have a fiendishly complex and calculating processing center which he uses to devise evil plots and nefarious acts of espionage against the Maximals. How his transformation into a ball helps him carry them out is unknown. Possibly, in a Samus Aran type fashion. Like his fellow Egg Beasts, he is among the oldest operational Predacons.
